Sports Build Character

Remember this case, which received a lot of publicity last year? How such a simple matter takes nearly 15 months to come to trial is beyond me, but such a delay should help the defendant given how memories can fade, and even the slightest change in the stories told by the children witnesses will be exploited by the defense attorney.

Anything is possible, I guess, and I know that children have falsely accused adults of far more serious crimes than this, but these kids sound credible, especially when you consider how way too seriously a lot of these coaches take such games. If you watched the recent Little League World Series for even five minutes, you saw lots of examples of that.
